"yes."
Nanny Feng and Zhenzhu returned home an incense stick's time later, both of them looking pale.
Xia gave them some hot tea.
Nanny Feng then said, "Two people were stabbed to death by refugees on the street across the street. The government sent out many people, but they couldn't catch the vicious refugees. It was really terrifying."
"Mammy, from now on, leave the grocery shopping to Zhenzhu and the others." Mammy was a few years old, and if something happened, it would be very inconvenient for her to walk. Chen Heng then said to Zhenzhu, "Zhenzhu, you should try not to go out. When you go out, be sure to bring guards with you."
Pearl nodded.
Since the housewarming party, the mansion has bought a lot of servants and even guards. The servants were carefully selected by the nanny, and the guards were selected by Xie Jian. They said they were trained by Gu Feng and Brother Yu Wei. With them accompanying her, Shen Heng was still very relieved.
When Xie Jian came back in the evening, Shen Heng asked about the refugees.
"The refugees are causing chaos, and they are not being caught. How can the government not catch them?" Chen Heng hung Xie Jian's coat on the screen.
After Xie Jian finished washing up, he helped Ah Heng sit down and said, "So, someone is pretending to be a refugee and causing trouble."
"Have you found out who it is?"
"The Master is investigating. I believe there will be results in the next few days."
"Master must be very busy. He seems to be thinner every time I see him." Chen Heng said with concern. Seeing Xie Jian's slightly jealous look, she quickly said, "Of course, our Ah Jian is the busiest one."
Xie Jian said slightly dissatisfiedly: "No matter what happens, my business should be put first."
Chen Heng immediately corrected herself: "Ajian is so busy, I think Lord Lu, as the Minister of Justice, must be even busier."
Xie Jian: “…”
Shen Heng chuckled and kissed him on the cheek.
Xie Jian finally smiled: "You've been feeling sleepy these past few days, go to bed early."
Chen Heng nodded. She had previously had a poor appetite and had always thought it was caused by the live pearl. Who would have thought that she was pregnant? Now she often felt sleepy, which was also due to the reaction of pregnancy. So she decided to just let it go.
After Shen Heng fell asleep, the smile on Xie Jian's face disappeared, and he took out a letter from Yuezhou from his arms. It was written to him by Shen Yuan.
The content of the letter was very simple. Someone wanted to create chaos, causing chaos in the world and making people's hearts even more confused. The Si family would take this opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
Who was creating the chaos? Xie Jian thought that Si Qi would definitely take advantage of Prince Ning to gain the upper hand.
Xie Jian thought of Liu Bang again. This half-dead king had never thought about getting out of the nightmare of the past, nor had he ever thought about taking a good look at the world and the suffering of his people.
But he also knew that Liu Yu had no teacher, no Aheng, and even no close relatives like his sister-in-law and Min'er who could give him hope of survival.
Without relatives to rely on, one has to rise and fall on his own. The best case scenario is a life of loneliness, while the worst case scenario is sudden death. How can one break this Huagai situation?
Chen Heng turned over and felt a little cold beside her. She opened her eyes slightly and found that Xie Jian was not asleep, but sitting quietly by the bed, staring at the outline of his figure cast on the ground by the paper window in a trance.
The room was dark, filled with only the night.
Did something happen? Every time Xie Jian acted like this, it was when he had to make a big decision. Shen Heng thought about it and realized that in the past two days, Xie Jian had spent quite a few nights thinking like this.
He didn't tell her anything, thinking it was an extremely difficult decision.
Chen Heng did not argue with him. No matter what decision Xie Jian made, she believed it was the best one at the moment.
